ClausB Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Thanks, that confirms it. If you want 256K, wire U20 pin 1 to ground and insert a 74LS153 into the socket at U20. BTW, this isn't an attempt to modify the 1066 into what it's not. Clearly the original designers had 256K in mind. They got most of the way there and then backed off for some reason. The date on the original schematic is May or June, 1984, months before I designed the 256K upgrade for the 800XL which appeared in BYTE a year later.

ClausB Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Yes, of course, though I have no rights to the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
